tombola is a technology company operating in the online gambling market. We came bouncing into the online bingo world in 2006, but our roots in bingo date way back to the 1800’s. We’ve grown rapidly over the years and entered the world of online slots in 2016 with tombola arcade. We’ve just embarked on a new chapter becoming part of Flutter entertainment, a FTSE100 company and the worlds biggest gaming company.
